Morrison Has the MOpes.

WAsIIINGToN, Nov. "a Special Telegram
to the BEE. One of the saddest men in the
city to-day is Inter State Commerce Commits
sioner Morrison. He seems to wander
around his hotel as if lost and anxious for a
time to make "a spurt and pass over year or
two. One of the things that makes him par
ticularly sad is the increasing talk of some
tariff reform bill passing congress this ses-
sion. 1t is a well known fact that Morrison
is not satisfied with his position on the COM
mission and hates to think of himself as
being shelved when congress is about to-
enter upon most lively time. 1t is aggra-
waiting, to say the least for him to think
after all his troubles and worry over tariff
BILL to find just at this time that he is out in
the cold; that some reduction is likely to be
made, or, at least, democrats so think.
But Morrison for the last few weeks
has been busying himself about the depart
ments. He has been at the postof1ice depart
ments as of old, looking after appointments
and seeing that things are being kept straight
under view of helping himself when the
time comes. Although his friends deny that
he thinks of resigning his present position,
yet there are many who state positively that
Morrison at the next congressional election
will run for congress from his old district.
Everything is being workedto that end. His
fences are being repaired, and he expects to
enter the battle with renewed vigor. There
are many here who pity Morrison in his pres
ent position, and as he shifts the coming bat
tie from afar he cannot but feel restless and
anxious. 1t will be still harder for him to go
to the capitol this winter and hear the fiery
debates on the floor of the house and not be
able to rush down the aisle and gain the eye
of the speaker and take once more his posi-
tion as leader of one of the democratic rings
Therefore it is no wonder that Morrison
wants time to hurry up.

PROTECTION AND REDUCTION.
Demo ratio Leaders Considering n
Compromise on the Tariff.
CARLISLE AND RANDALL TO MEET
The People OF the Several Territories
Confident of Admission at the
Coming Session of Congress
Capital News.


WAsuINGToN. Nov. 24.-ISpecial Telegram
to the BEE. On Saturday of last week
Speaker Carlisle mailed letter to Congress
man Sam Randall at Philadelphia. The let
ter was written at the presidents suggestion
1t was very brief. In it the speaker in
formed Mr.. Randall that he desired private
conference with him and asked the latter to
fix upon the earliest day possible for the
purpose. Yesterday Mr. Randall's reply
was received. He hoped, he said, to return
to Washington either the 23d or cath inst.
Within the next few days following his re
turn he would endeavor to accommodate Mr..
Carlisle by meeting him as he desired. An
| intimate friend of Mr.. Carlisle, from whom
| the following information was received, says
| the object of the conference will be to secure
an expression of Mr.. Randalrs views
| upon the subject of tariff reduction in the
! Fiftieth congress. The conference will be
| strictly private There will be no one pres
| ent but the two gentlemen in question. If
| Mr. Randall will meet the low tariff demo-
| Gratis halfway some compromise measure may
be agreed upon and passed this winter.
| Should he refuse and manifest disposition
| to pursue his past obstruction policy then MIR.
| Carlisles friends say Mr. Randall must look
| out for himself.
| When the BEE representative inquired
| what was meant by this declaration he was
told that it meant that Mr.. Randall would be
| regarded by the tariff reformers precisely as
| republican protectionist would be, with al
| that the term implies. When asked if il
| meant the removal of Mr. Randall from the
| chairmanship of the appropriation committee
the reply was that that matter would be
further considered after Mr.. Randall hac
stated his ultimation. BY inference however
the BEE correspondent was led to believe thai
anything short of a liberal spirit of dealing
with the tariff question would result in Mr..
Randalls removal from his present position
and his assignment to one of much less dig
nifty and power.

ATTEMPT TO KILL O'BRIEN.
HE is SHOT AT ON THE STREETS OF
HAMILTON, ONTARIO.

Eight Bullets Strike His Carriage and the
wrist-O'Brien and His Party UnIn-
Jured-NO Arrests Yet Made
HAMILTON, Ont, May 25- The O'Brien
meeting in the palace rink las1 night was
grand affair. A squad of police patrolled
the street in front of the rink, and kept
crowd of 1900 people back while larger
number inside the building unanimously in
dorsed the statements of the speaker. Mr..
O'Brien, on rising, received an ovation. He
repeated his familiar denunciation of Lord
Lansdowne's treatment of his Irish tenants,
and was frequently applauded. He spoke
for a shorter time than at Kingston.
Throughout the meeting mob of Orange
men tried to get near the rink, but were
kept back by the police.
This action of the police prevented bloody
riot. O'Brien's body guard of armed Irish
m en- was a reality, and had the Orangemen
attempted any hostile move the Irishmen
would have attacked them, and there would
have been terrible execution. After the
meeting O'Brien, Kilbride and some others
left the rink by private way, taking cab
to the hotel The vehicle had hardly started
when, from group of five men near the
edge Of the Orange crowd, a volley of pistol
shots was fired. Eight bullets struck the
carriage The cabmau, John Nelson, was
seriously wounded, but Mr. O'Brien and his
friends fortunately escaped. At the hotel q
volley of rotten eggs greeted the occupants
of the carriage when they alighted
Tho af 70 Elifoy L.
roundly condemned by everybody. The
most rabid Orange partisan, whatever his
private opinion may be Of brick-bats, seems
to shrink from the idea of shutting up
O'Brien with revolver The local Orange
men are busy now denying that they had a
hand in the shooting, and claim that gang
from Toronto are responsible for it, It seems
that if Mr.. O'Brien had left the hall by the
front entrance where the police were sta
toned in force the shooting in all probabil-
ity would not have occurred Some friend,
however, formulated plan, which he kept
from the knowledge Of the police, but Of
which the Orange mob seemed to have
learned. This scheme was to have O'Brien
leave the building by side door, go through
narrow alley, at the end Of which car
riage was standing, and thus proceed to his
hotel. After the party had reached the car
riage John Nelson. took up the reins and
drove through the gathering mob into Mar
ket Square, where group of five men were
standing. A pistol shot rang out, the horses
pranced and Nelson cried out that he was
shot. Eight distinct shots were fired A
bullet whizzed past Mr.. O'Brien's face as he
looked out OF the window.
Nelson had received serious wound in the
wrist. Mr. T. P. O'Brien picked up the
reins and drove to the hotel, where another
bowling mob had gathered. Mr.GMcMahon
drew revolver and began to make way
for the party when the police arrived and
dispersed the mob. As the party stepped
into the hotel a volley of rotten eggs was
thrown after them. Nelson's 'yound is con-
sidered dangerous No arrests have been

cessfully adopted, yesterday, novel method
of taking her life Early in the morning,
before anyone else about the hotel was astir,
she stole into the bath room, and after
climbing into the tub, lay down ON her back,
opened her mouth and let the water from a
big faucet run down her throat. She had
put piece of rubber between her teeth, SO
that her mouth could not Close and the water
ran down her throat in such volume that
she died in a few minutes. She had, how
ever, severe struggle, as was indicated by
her clothing, but she persisted in holding her
mouth beneath the spigot until her lung
cavity was filled, and she choked to death.
There was less than three inches of water in
the tub when the body was found. The woman
was nearly eighty-fve years old and was

Interesting Views of the Reciproci

Interesting Views of the Reciprocity
Question and O'Brien's Visit.
NEW YORK, May 25.-The Times prints
the following: Sir Charles Tupper, Canadian
minister of finance in Canada, at present
visiting this city, yesterday expressed his
views on matters which interest the public.
His first remark concerned the visit Of Mr..
O'Brien to Canada, and while he did not 20
In the subject very extensively, he made his
remarks sufficiently pointed.
Zone Of the advantages which we think
the British system has over the American
system" he said, sis that both in England
and in Canada all parties treat the executive
head of the nation as beyond criticism. We
attack the responsible ministers of the day
In England, and in Canada we do the sams
thing. But" and Sir Charles smiled gravely,
"we don't attack tho executive head Of the
country Fiercely as controversy may
wage between the two parties, they all
unite in sustaining the executive head Of the
country It naturally follows that we dis.
approve very strongly-aL parties and all
classes Of us-of departure from that
course by anybody coming into the coun-
try to attack the queens representative
and that in reference to questions that
have no relation to Canada or Canada's af-
fairs.
"At the same time everybody deplores the
fact that if Mr.. O'Brien had the bad taste
and bad Judgment to come to Canada on
such mission he should have been made tha
subject of violence by any interference.
Such thing is a most unusual thing for
Canada, as it is place where the freest
speech on all questions is tolerated"
Concerning the question of commercial re-
ciprocity between the United States and
Canada, Sir Charles had great deal to say.
at is very much in the interest of ths
United States and Canada, =" he began, "that
there should be the freest commercial inter.
course between the two countries Canada
ts ready and has always been ready to pro-
mote that commercial intercourse to the
fullest extent. But Of course we are quite
aware that unless we can adopt the United
States tariff as between us and England II
would be quite impracticable. mean that
1t would be impossible for the United States
TO consent to customs union or free trada
between Can ada and the Uniten States, q
that would really mean free trade between
the United States and England. A complete
customs union is simply impracticable. Il
would be quite impossible for Canada tC
adopt tariff so hostile to the mother coun-
try"

Another Jesse Jnmes Gang.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, May 25.-Ernest
Pfeifer, in Jail here for the confessed mur.
der of Farmer Tillspaugh, is said to have
made disclosures to the police which have
brought to light the existence of band Of
conspirators whose organization was based
on the plan Of the Jesse James gang. Plani
had been laid for the murder and robbery OF
wealthy farmers, and the pillage Of express
trains and pay cars The gang were only
waiting for the release of member from
prison to begin operations, but Pfeifer, II
seems, ran short of funds and went into the
murder business on his own account. About
half dozen we'll known criminals are inn
plicated, and the authorities are looking for
them
